Davis Cup Finals: Rafael Nadal bid an emotional farewell to tennis at the Davis Cup Finals after losing to Botic van de Zandschulp, completing a full circle of his career as he lost his first at the tournament in 2004 and wrapped up his glittering two-decade long career with a loss.

Even before a ball had been hit, the 38-year-old Nadal was full of emotions as tears welled in the eyes of the 22-time Grand Slam champion when the Spanish team lined up for their national anthem.

Zandschulp eased to a 6-4, 6-4 win over Nadal to put Netherlands 1-0 ahead in their quarterfinal tie against Spain. He then teamed with Wesley Koolhof for a 7-6(4), 7-6(3) doubles victory against Carlos Alcaraz and Marcel Granollers.
